If you did, could you tell me if you ever found something that was as good in terms of quality, price and convenience? But EASIER to buy!!!
To give you some background info and help you understand where I'm coming from; Apart from being a vegan, I'm part of a small private outing club and responsible for the food during our trips.
I've searched far and wide for something that would be light to carry, simple to prepare, moderately priced, very nutritious, would taste great and comes in more than ONE flavour.
Well, I found it a few months ago. What might be among the best vegan food sold at the weirdest place. A company called Hothuck's (http://www.hothucks.com/) produces remarkable soy veggie ground, but only sell their products at Mountain Equipment Co-op (www.mec.ca) (http://www.mec.ca)/) !!! Even worst, they produce what might be the best veggie burger on the planet, but forget it. You won't find it in any supermarket, nor health food store, not even at MEC. If you want it, you have to order it from them directly.
I agree that price, quality and taste are excellent. In particular the veggie burger. But since I live 80 miles from the closest MEC store and since I am not a fan of mail order, I was wondering if anyone out there found something as good as HotHuck's, BUT is more convenient to purchase? I live in a major North American city with all traditional stores nearby (or at least within reasonable driving distance).
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
